4 reviews for Laura Mercier Counter
Laura Mercier is all about the flawless face (http://www.lauramercie...) and so am I....
I adore putting makeup on, and love when my skin looks healthy, even, non-greasy and natural - so I was curious to learn more about Laura Mercier's long wearing and oil free foundation line, after a recommendation from a co-worker.
I stopped in here on my mall "get ready for Vegas" trip the other day and was extremely impressed with all of Laura Mercier's high quality products.
The Laura Mercier rep helping me was not exactly the friendliest of make-up reps that I've come across, but in a short matter of time she found the perfect color tone for me, listened to my skin concerns, applied the sample makeup for me so I could see what kind of coverage it gave, and didn't oversell me on any other products.
The other day I went out on the town recently wearing some Laura Mercier products and couldn't stop staring at myself in shop windows. My skin evenly glowed, you couldn't tell I was wearing makeup, and above all my pores were happy.
If you're looking to find a light efficient foundation - Laura Mercier should be your first and only stop.
TIGHT LINE! That's all needed to make the difference apparently.
Coworker: You look really nice. Did you do something different? Your makeup maybe?
Me (wondering if I always look a kindergartener gone wild facepainting on normal mornings): Slightly different makeup application this morning.
Coworker: Well, whatever you've done, it looks great!
Seriously, have I been walking around all this time looking like a schleb? Uhh....
Note: This is a review of the Laura Mercier counter at NORDSTROM, not Bloomingdale's.
Oh, come on - Angela is great! She has a voice kind of like Chandler's girlfriend but I mean that in a good way. Very charming. And she knows what she's doing - she won't oversell you. My 10 minute makeover was killer.
Yeah, the stuff is way overpriced. Just get the eyeliner - there's nothing like it. I'm tellin' ya.
Love it.
I hate make up, but as I've gotten older, I have come to appreciate it.
I don't like too much.
If this was baby bear's make up, it would be-just right.
This is my beauty regimen that takes five minutes.
Girls, if you are doing this longer than five-STOP.
Yeah, you heard me! put that blush brush down! besides blush is out.
Do you really want to look like a floozy?
(Several raise hands)
Okay, whatever go 'head.
I met the lady there at the counter who was super nice. She's super!
Did I tell you she was super?
Anyway, she made me up right there on the spot and this is what I do now, when I want to look a little more dolled up, but it still looks super natural.
Step 1. get a box...just kidding... I wash my face.
Step 2. cut a hole.. just kidding...I moisturize.
Step 3. I put the Foundation Primer (Hydrating) on, which moisturizes the skin well so that when you put on the powder, it's even.
Step 4. Apply Undercover for the secret camoflague to hide pesky zits and the secret concealer which gets rid of dark circles under the eyes.
Step 5. put the mineral powder on with a big fat brush all over the face. It also has SPF 15 in it.
finished look-http://static.px.yelp....
This is what I do at home thanks to the ultra-professional, awesome girl who helped me.
Thanks for helping me who is make-up challenged.
